Bury My Quarterback At Wounded Knee

So let me get this straight: you're in a conference championship game, you're starting quarterback leaves the biggest game of the year with a knee injury, he takes a boatload of crap for it, and almost two weeks later everyone learns that he took a painkilling shot and attempted to go back out?

I mean, we all heard that he was hurt and wanted to try, but no one said anything about he guy actually taking a shot and his knee buckling.

You may ask yourself: does it matter? OF COURSE IT DOES. Everyone's lambasting the guy for looking like it didn't bother him to leave the game and that he didn't do enough to try to gut it out and everyone leaves THAT detail out?

Although no one should be surprised by anything the Bears management clown college does. The whole thing was handled poorly from the get go.

Knowing Chicago and Bears' fans, why wouldn't someone- anyone- get the guy a pair of crutches of he wanted to stay on the sidelines? I agree, it's irrational but in life you can be completely right and still lose. I understand Lovie Smith and Mike Martz being preoccupied, but you can't tell me a trainer or someone couldn't have had the presence of mind to at least make the injury visually justified to the fans?

And now this little nugget is the cherry on the incompetence sundae. If I'm Jay Cutler, why would I want to play for the Bears after they left me dangling in the breeze?

In all the press coverage, the TMZ videos, the blogs, the talk radio callers, etc; no one thought to make public the fact that Jay indeed do everything in his power to play?

This is just another sign of what is sure to be another offseason of disgust, especially if the Pats tag Logan Mankins and the Bears can't even make an offer.

But hey, I'm tingling with anticipation to see who will be this year's first round bust. That's about all we Bears fans have to look forward to.
